J&K elementary edu allocation falls 38% to Rs 633 cr
Srinagar, Aug 10: The Centre has sharply reduced its allocation for elementary education in Jammu & Kashmir under the Samagra Shiksha scheme, with the provision falling to Rs 633.53 crore for 2026-27. The allocation represents a decline of nearly 38 per cent from Rs 1,017.75 crore sanctioned for2025-26.It is also significantly lower than the Rs 1,180.11 crore allocated in 2024-25 and Rs 1,234.55 crore in 2023-24. The figures were placed before the Lok Sabha by Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi in response to a starred question concerning the allocation and utilisation of funds for primary education. For 2026-27, J&K's allocation is considerably lower than that of several major states. Maharashtra has been allocated Rs 1,744.65 crore, while Uttar Pradesh has received Rs 8,898.96 crore. Bihar has been allocated Rs 5,970.76 crore and Rajasthan Rs 3,081.48 crore. The Centre said allocations under Samagra Shiksha depend on approved annual plans, expenditure levels and compliance with financial requirements. It also pointed to unspent balances from previous yearswhiledetermining the release of subsequent funds. According to the government, some states and Union Territories are unable to receive all instalments because of slower spending. Further releases are linked to requirements such as audited accounts, utilisation certificates, updated expenditure details and the release of the corresponding state share. The Ministry also highlighted the PRABANDH system, which tracks the implementation and expenditure of Samagra Shiksha programmes. Its dashboard records monthly physical and financial progress, while the Ministry conducts regular reviews with states and UTs. At the national level, spending on infrastructure under the scheme increased from Rs 1,962.77 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 2,871.95 crore in 2025-26. Expenditure on teacher salaries, however, stood at Rs 17,234.40 crore and Rs 13,508.69 crore during the respective years. Spending on free textbooks declined from Rs 2,551.33 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 2,353.23 crore in 2025-26. Expenditure on free uniforms increased marginally from Rs 3,845.93 crore to Rs 3,871.02 crore. The government also informed Parliament that Education Cess collections increased from Rs 63,252.86 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 65,890.50 crore in 2025-26. It said the cess is outside the divisible pool of taxes and is therefore not shared between the Centre and states under Article 270 of the Constitution. Education-related proceeds are routed through the Prarambhik Shiksha Kosh and the Madhyamik and Uchchtar Shiksha Kosh. Utilisation from the Prarambhik Shiksha Kosh rose from Rs 40,900 crore in 2024-25 to Rs 48,049.09 crore in 2025-26. Utilisation from the Madhyamik and Uchchtar Shiksha Kosh stood at Rs 11,162.60 crore and Rs 10,314.31 crore respectively during the two years.I can also make this more newspaper-style with a sharper lead and stronger J&K angle.

Leh Police seize 2 lakh assets of drug offender
Leh: Aug 9: In a significant action against drug trafficking and illicit proceeds, the District Police Leh has initiated proceedings under Section 68F of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985, leading to the seizure of movable properties worth approximately 2 lakh belonging to a habitual drug offender. The action was carried out by Police Station Leh against Kundan Sah, son of Ban Bari Sah, a resident of Village Mahadha in Banka district of Bihar, presently residing at Chuchot Yokma, Leh. Police said the accused has been found involved in multiple cases registered under the NDPS Act. According to police, Kundan Sah was named as an accused in FIR No. 162/2025, registered under Sections 8/20 of the NDPS Act at Police Station Leh, in which 960 grams of ganja was recovered from his possession. In another case, FIR No. 01/2026, registered under Sections 8/20 of the NDPS Act at Police Station Khaltsi, around 955 grams of ganja was recovered from a co-accused who was allegedly transporting the contraband to Kundan Sah.

Acting under the provisions of Section 68F of the NDPS Act, Police Station Leh seized two motorcycles and six push carts used for selling golgappas, with the total value of the seized properties estimated at around 2 lakh. Police said the action is aimed at not only apprehending individuals involved in the illegal trade of narcotic substances but also identifying and disrupting the financial assets generated through drug trafficking. The seizure marks another step by District Police Leh towards dismantling the network and financial infrastructure supporting the illegal drug trade in the region. Police maintained that strict action will continue against individuals involved in the possession, transportation, supply and trade of narcotic substances. District Police Leh reiterated its commitment to protecting the community from the growing threat of drug abuse and trafficking and urged the general public to extend cooperation to law enforcement agencies by sharing information about drug-related activities.

Bhuvneshwar Keeps ODI WC Ambitions Grounded, Says cant Predict What Will Happen
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: India and Lucknow Falcons pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar refused to look too far ahead when asked about his chances of making the ODI World Cup squad, insisting that his immediate focus remains on playing and performing rather than predicting what the future may hold. I have to play, I am playing. I can't predict what will happen after that, Bhuvneshwar told IANS when asked if his recent performances in white-ball cricket, including the IPL and domestic competitions, could put him in contention for the ODI World Cup. The experienced pacer is set to lead the Lucknow Falcons in the fourth edition of the Uttar Pradesh T20 League, which will get underway on August 14. For Bhuvneshwar, the tournament represents another opportunity to contribute on the field while helping the next generation of Uttar Pradesh cricketers navigate the demands of competitive cricket. The 24-day UPT20 Season 4 will feature 34 matches and, for the first time, will be staged across two cities. Lucknow will host the opening phase at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, with 22 matches scheduled across 13 matchdays, before the tournament moves to Green Park Stadium in Kanpur for the remaining 12 matches over 11 matchdays. Bhuvneshwar, who has been part of the league since its early years, believes the tournament has grown steadily and can serve as an important stepping stone for players aspiring to reach the IPL and, eventually, the national team. This is the fourth year of the league and every year we are seeing an improvement, be it the ability of the players, or the facilities provided by UPCA, or the way they carry out operations. I am sure theres a good future. I think every state is having a league, not just UPCA, he added. The veteran pacer sees the emergence of state T20 leagues as a positive development for domestic cricket. Of course, these leagues have a future. This is a big opportunity for all the players. If they do well, they might get to play at the IPL and eventually for the Indian team. So its a great opportunity, he stated. Bhuvneshwar said the focus within the Lucknow Falcons camp is less on elaborate match plans at this stage and more on ensuring players are mentally prepared and comfortable when they step onto the field. See, it hasn't started yet; practice is going on. Of course, there will be some strategy, some planning. But it is very important how you get into the match, how you get into the mindset, the pacer said. Bhuvneshwar said the focus within the Lucknow Falcons camp is less on elaborate match plans at this stage and more on ensuring players are mentally prepared and comfortable when they step onto the field.
